"Am I that special?"
King Snake furrowed his brow, not really believing his words.
But thinking of business, he quickly got to the point:
"I've got other things these couple of days, let's find a quiet place to talk as soon as possible."
"That's what I was thinking too." Little Tiger pointed to the repair shop behind, "Let's choose here, you can have your men go in and check."
"Alright." King Snake nodded, keeping the car running while letting Shun'er take a few people to check it out.
Little Tiger also inclined his head, letting a few people follow, just in case he hadn't hidden anything, but others had.
About half an hour passed.
The two teams returned one after another, both shaking their heads, indicating the repair shop was safe.
At the same time.
Little Tiger was the first to spread his hands, stretching out his arms, "The rules of the road, unload your gun when you enter. I'm the host here, I'm already at an advantage, I'll go first, you search."
"Apologies." King Snake got out of the car with a smile, took a few steps forward, and began to search him.
Once the search was complete.
King Snake also stretched out his arms, "Host, please."
"Heh heh." Little Tiger chuckled, "Sorry."
After confirming none of them were carrying guns.
King Snake looked at Zhang Feng and Shun'er and the others.
Little Tiger also looked at his trusted men.
They checked each other.
After everyone was checked.
The rest stayed outside.
King Snake pointed at four people, including Zhang Feng, and entered the repair shop.
Little Tiger led four people as well.
Except the four behind him all had foreign appearances.
King Snake glanced at them, thinking they were fugitives gathered from all over, so he didn't mind.
Zhang Feng looked, but felt something was up.
Because these four people all had a certain level of training in their movements.
"Brother King Snake." Zhang Feng stepped closer to King Snake, whispering, "There might be something; these four aren't ordinary."
"Are we ordinary?" King Snake shook his head slightly, "Relax, they may be fugitives, but they're not stupid.
They won't screw us over and play with their lives."
Drug lords, fugitives, we're all the same kind.
We usually mind our own business.
After all, we're all fishing in this border's underworld.
"In this tiny lake, your Brother King Snake still has a bit of sway."
King Snake patted Zhang Feng's strong shoulder.
Because of Zhang Feng's concern.
He felt a lot more favorable towards Zhang Feng.
Creak—
The rusty gate was closed from the inside, a harsh sound rising, cutting off everyone's sight outside.
The group didn't stop, continuing deeper into the repair shop.
About sixty meters in, they reached a spacious office.
Zhang Feng saw it was quite clean, someone had tidied up.
The tables and chairs had all been moved out, making it look very empty, with no place to hide anything.
King Snake walked a few steps further, then looked at Little Tiger, "What's the business, say it.
Is it goods you robbed, and you want me to sell them, or what?"
"Don't be in such a hurry." Little Tiger took out a cigarette, offering it to King Snake.
King Snake didn't smoke others' cigarettes, "I've quit."
"Good that you quit." Little Tiger smiled, also offering to Zhang Feng and the others.
"Don't smoke."
"Just quit."
Zhang Feng and the others also declined.
"No one?" Little Tiger didn't seem embarrassed and put them away again, "Since you don't want to make small talk, let's get straight to business."
He looked at King Snake,
"Here's the thing, I called you here today, but it's not to sell my goods."
"Then what do you mean?" King Snake frowned at him, "After hearing your message, I came all the way excited, and now you're teasing me?"
Rustling—
Shun'er and the others thought there was a trick, and their steps moved closer to King Snake.
Zhang Feng saw there wasn't any sign of action from the other side, so he continued to stand still.
But it was exactly Zhang Feng's composed demeanor.
That disappointed King Snake, and the good feeling he just developed for Zhang Feng dropped.
"No, no! Don't misunderstand!" Little Tiger saw the others were about to make a move, but took several steps back and smiled, "I was thinking if we could partner, sell your powder together?"
"Well then." King Snake thought it was something else, "In that case, it's the market wholesale price; you let me know the amount you need, and we'll exchange cash and goods at the same time."
King Snake spoke, seemingly with no change in expression.
But inside, he was very unhappy.
He originally thought it was extra profit, but didn't expect it to be 'main business.'
Moreover, this business was directly connected to his 'upper line.'
If this spread out, and Luo Huo found out.
The worst, it's death.
At best, he'd have to return to the village and couldn't move outside in the future.
Thinking about this, King Snake's mood worsened.
But what Little Tiger said next nearly made him explode with anger.
"No, no, no!" Little Tiger shook his head after hearing the market price, "What I mean is, can it be thirty percent lower than the market price?
I know you can still make a profit."
"Thirty percent?" King Snake's expression turned cold, "Are you f*cking kidding me? Why should I give you thirty percent less?"
"Of course because you're King Snake." Little Tiger feigned inquiry, "I remember, people doing smuggling business with you on the border only know King Snake deals drugs.
But few know you're with Luo Huo, right?
If Luo Huo found out you were doing extra work, and privately contacting people.
What do you think?
What would happen?"
"You've met Luo Huo?" King Snake's gaze was cold.
"I'm not that capable." Little Tiger grinned, "I wouldn't dare look for a notorious armed drug lord.
But if I spread the word, telling everyone that King Snake is hiding from Luo Huo while doing extra business.
Guess, how long would it take for Luo Huo to know about this?"
"Hahaha…" King Snake suddenly laughed and then, as if discussing, tried to calm his tone and said, "Even if I gave you thirty percent less, can you ensure not to say anything?"
